I hate to have to put anyone out, but I have a huge favour to ask of anyone that has an iMag subcription to TBCI magazine. I have an article in issue 179 that I would like to get a copy of the PDF for my website, but when I went to join up myself, it stated that a computer that is more than 3 years old is not compatible with the iMag :doh: that counts me out, mine is ancient   Can anyone help me out by downloading the PDF and emailing it to me at kimruss69@bigpond.com.au ??? I know everyone's time is precious, and again, I really don't want to put anyone out :redface:  but all my other efforts to get a PDF copy have been in vain, I hope one of you lovely bear people  can help me out :hug:

That's the biggest batch of fluff I have heard in a long time!

Set your browser's user agent to something else and you'll probably sail right through.

Thanks Sue, I actually have a scanned copy, thanks to Sandi Smith, they just don't seem to appear as clear as a PDF on my website for some reason, I will try it though! Thanks so much for the offer :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

They've probably standardized on Microsoft and their people probably aren't trained how to deal with problems very well.
They just tell people things like that because they don't want to deal with questions from users asking "How do I...  ??"

My last computer was 10 years old before I got a new one this past Christmas.
I had ZERO problems accessing any given website.

If the website puts up a message that says, "You can't access this site because your computer isn't new enough." they are trapping the "User Agent" information in your browser.  If you use Firefox you can tell your browser to lie to the server.  In which case you'll bypass that message.

If you need more information send me a message.  I'll do what I can to help.
